Thoughtfully designed and custom built in 2013, this charming Craftsman-inspired residence offers over 2, 500 square feet of beautifully appointed living space, blending timeless style, everyday comfort, and peaceful pond-front living. Nestled on a beautifully landscaped homesite in a quiet Manteo neighborhood with minimal traffic, the setting is as inviting as the home itself. From the welcoming covered front porch to the peaceful pond views and protected bulkheaded shoreline, every detail enhances the home's tranquil coastal appeal. Inside, the thoughtfully planned floor plan is designed for effortless living. Warm hardwood floors, quality finishes, and abundant natural light create an inviting atmosphere throughout. The spacious living area flows seamlessly into the well-appointed kitchen, where custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances (all 2021 or newer), generously sized island with granite countertop space, and a large pantry make both everyday meals and entertaining a pleasure. Just beyond the living area, a lovely screened porch overlooks the peaceful water, providing the perfect backdrop for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or soaking in the vibrant colors of unforgettable waterfront sunsets. Beautiful landscaping complements the tranquil setting, creating an inviting outdoor space to relax and enjoy the natural surroundings. The first-floor primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a spacious walk-in closet and an ensuite bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. The nearby laundry room and convenient powder room further enhance the home's functional layout. Upstairs, a generous den provides flexible space for a media room, home office, or additional gathering area, while three additional bedrooms and a full bath offer comfortable accommodations for family and guests. Abundant storage has been thoughtfully incorporated throughout the home, offering exceptional organization and everyday convenience without sacrificing style. Additional highlights and updates include an attached one-car garage (with lots of room for storage), a recently updated (2019) bulkhead for extra protection, two heat pumps (one replaced 2025) for efficient year-round comfort, and a location that offers the best of peaceful residential living just minutes from the charm of historic downtown Manteo, waterfront attractions, shopping, dining, and the beautiful beaches of the Outer Banks.
